Ummmmm, whatever he ordered??

Seriously though--when faced with this situation the best thing you can do is to do what you always do and do it the best that you can.

Well dang, he is human. He would get what ever I was fixing that night. Now if my resources were unlimited and I had anything I could use, well of course he would have the finest dish I could possibly muster up. Just not sure what that would be.
prepared with passion and served with love !

What would you cook for Thomas Keller, Part II
I don't cook, but fortunately I live near the restaurant in the article. So if Keller
ever shows up on my doorstep, maybe I can order out. 
Here's the menu or at least part of it. (Click on the autographed menu to get a larger, more readable version.)

Guess he would be eating whatever I was putting on the table that night. And, if he didn't like it... well there's plenty of big-name restaurants in Charleston he could eat at.
